ACTION ALERT:  HR 5
 

The So-Called Equality Act
 

National Right to Life opposed passage of H.R. 5, which passed the House, 224-206, on February 25, 2021 (House Roll Call No. 39). The bill was supported by 221 Democrats and 3 Republicans. It was opposed by 206 Republicans. 2 Republicans did not vote.
In addition to other issues, H.R. 5 poses a significant pro-life threat. It amends the 1964 Civil Rights Act, adding language that could be used to make abortions more available, expand taxpayer funding of abortion, and weaken conscience protections for health care providers opposed to participating in abortions. 

Timing on a Senate vote is unclear, but could happen on short notice.
